ep207 The Reckless Driver

Snow floods, bears, rattlesnakes, mountain lions, yes, all this in exchange for the satisfaction and pride of a job well done. Say have you ever known people who somehow were always in hot water? Oh nothing serious, but well, they're just a little bit on the daring side.

They think after it's too late. Some folks call them foolhardy. Others call them a nuisance. Nevertheless, it seems that this type of individual pulls one hair-brain stunned after another. That's a perfect description of Norman Marks.

He never took anything serious, never had a ounce of responsibility in his blood. Then suddenly, Norm got into more trouble than a barrel of monkeys. And here's how it happened. Listen to the story of… The Reckless Driver.

Two young fellows, Norman Marks and his friend Jack Sanders, are just about to leave for Canyon City. Jack is a quiet fellow, much more conservative than Norm, and as they stand talking, it's plain to see that Jack is a little worried.

Norm, do you really think we're at our drive to Canyon City tonight? Well, sure, why not? Well, it's darker than the inside of a closet. I've got good lights on the car. Well, more do we want.

Oh, but these, these rotten roads, they're hard to drive at night. What's the matter, Jack? You scared yourself? No, but... ...or lonely. The way you drive, I... No, you're talking like my folks. You don't have to go if you don't want to.

Oh, that's not that. Okay, then. Jump in and we'll be on our way. All right. I wish you'd keep this crate down to driving speed for a change. Pfft. You think we're gonna take off and fly, huh?
